Why does the engine get extremely hot after driving for a while?

The reasons why the engine gets extremely hot after driving for a while: 1. Severe lack of coolant. If the owner does not check and add coolant in time, it can easily cause the engine to overheat. It is recommended that users check the coolant; 2. Water pump failure. After the water pump fails, the water that conducts heat from the engine cannot circulate and renew in time. After the engine runs for a while, the water temperature will rise rapidly, and the water temperature warning light on the dashboard will also turn on; 3. Cooling fan failure. If the cooling fan is damaged or the wiring is short-circuited, causing the fan to not work or the cooling fan to rotate slowly, the engine's heat cannot be dissipated, leading to an increase in engine temperature. Naturally, you will feel a significant amount of heat when opening the engine compartment.
